tire stagger. i don't have a set stagger to run because the tire wear. and loose there stagger. no body that I know of really does that.

as for asphalt generally most people run 3 pinks and purple. I run pink lefts RF purple RR double pink. yes I have bought a few tires. but the beauty of foam tires is you can run them till the foam is gone. un like the touring car tires that have them few fast runs in them the level off. generally what I do is after a race pull the tire off and measure them then put them in my box. for the next race I find 4 tires the same size.

hope this helps answer some of your questions on oval tires.
